Charlotte Church needs new girl name
Filed under: Bump Watch, Celeb Kids, Life & Style, Celeb Parents
Welsh singer, Charlotte Church has to go back to the drawing board for a new girl name for her unborn child, due in just a couple of weeks. Because British television personality Myleene Klass just named her newborn Ava, Church feels that she needs to select another.
Apparently Charlotte wasn't aware of Ava's popularity across the pond. American celebrities Reese Witherspoon, Heather Locklear, and Kevin Dillon (from Entourage) all have daughters named Ava. And according to the highly addictive Baby Name Wizard, Ava ranked as the 5th most popular girl name in the United States last year.
If Church wants a unique name, she has one with her choice for a boy. The popularity of "Lucius" peaked in the U.S. during the 1890's and hasn't been in the top one thousand since the 1950s.
I'm pretty sure that one won't be stolen from her!

BJ said...Charlotte -- I would just go with the anglican name of Eve. It means the beginning of all life...or you can change the spelling of Ava to Aveh of Avea...Then it's the same but the difference makes it special. Good luck with your baby and in your life. Love your voice dear one...

LS said...I really don't get the whole, "my child can't have the same name as someone else's child" thing. It's completely ridiculous. Unless you're going to name your kid something stupid, like Apple or Desk or whatever, *someone* is bound to have the same name.
This happened to me when I was carrying our son - we had chosen his name, and then my husband talked to his girlfriend from HIGH SCHOOL, whom I had never met, and he hadn't seen in a good 15 years. She was due the week after me, and had chosen the same name if her child was a boy. My husband wanted to find another name for our child. I said, "No Way. We chose this name before he was even conceived, and I'm not giving it up because someone else chose it, too."
Life is too short to worry about what other people think.

FELISA said...I understand giving your child its own name. I can remember when I was in school I had six Lisa's in my class the teacher had to use the middle name of each child to seperate them. If the mother only knew what the children had to go through in school they would be glad they tried to give there child a name no one else had. I named my daughter Talitha pronounced ta leth a . They are a few females with this name but not many. When I was a young girl in BIBLE school I remembered talking about this young girl and I said then when I grow up and have a child I would name her that. In 1983 she was born and gave the name Talitha Len.
Charlotte, when you hear the name you will know if it is the one for your child!
Talitha in the Bible
Also Talitha is a biblical reference.In the Gospel of Mark, Jesus spoke the words "Talitha cumi" or in other translations "Talitha Kuom" [Aramaic =maiden, arise][Hebrew = little girl, get up]. He said this to the daughter of the synangogue's ruler. The gospel says that the man and his family believed the girl to be dead, but Jesus said, "She is merely sleeping." The people were in disbelief, but Jesus said the words, and the young girl was raised from the dead. The words are in all European versions of the Gospel, Mark 5:41. The story can also be seen in Matthew 9:18-26 and Luke 8:40-56.
